Resident Evil 6

 Resident Evil 6 is a game released in 2013 but has since been remastered for the Xbox one. The portion of game I played is a linear co-op campaign with my friend Isabel. Isabel and I played through the Jake campaign which is centered around Jake and a woman known as Sherry Birkin. Sherry is tasked by the U.S government to find and secure Jake who is Immune to a virus that is rapidly spreading known as the C-Virus. The C-Virus is responsible for turning humans into a creature known as a J'avo. J'avo are at first human like with the capability of using weapons but have severely altered appearances, such as four eyes. Once killed the J'avo experience metamorphosis, where they are enveloped in a cocoon and are transformed into a half animal half human being revived and enhanced. The story is mostly mindless fun, however there is a twist within the story that reveals that members in the U.S government are responsible for this virus, and also killing the president within another campaign. Rhetoric within this game, is limited compared to other games such as Cyberpunk 2077 as disbelief is an element within this game, its more so a departure from story and horror that resident evil is known for and more so brainless action. But it is important to keep in mind that members in the U.S government are capable of releasing a shady virus? It is unnerving because maybe that plot point, while unlikely is a possibility.

  For The King      This week we talked about several different types of Tabletop games. An interesting video game was made called For The King which is essentially capturing a tabletop game experience, however in a videogame form.    The player starts off by creating their character, they can change their appearance and class. The options for appearance are fairly limited, but its enough to give the player a couple of options. The classes however are fairly expansive, the player starts off with 4 classes to choose from but can unlock up to 13 classes. The goal of the game is up to three adventures go out in the world, clear temples, buy items and weapons and eventually defeat a world ending boss. For example in one of the "boards" the final boss is this lovely creature.  The players will have to prepare and work together to better themselves to face him though and.... He hits and Tanks like a world ending boss, so defeating him is no easy task... hell even a random encounter

Legends Of Runeterra

 Legends of Runeterra   Legends of Runeterra is a card game that is based off the lore surrounding the game "League of Legends" League of Legends released on October 27th 2009 and since became the most played video game globally and over the last decade has expanded and changed the competitive e-sports scene, but over the years it also developed pages and pages of lore developing regions, cultures, characters, etc till it eventually became a very richly built world. The reason I came to look at this game is it has inspired me to look at a way of adapting even more of the lore that the writers have created into gameplay. The first ever game that was not based on league was this game "legends of Runeterra" which is a card game using characters from the league of legends universe to battle each other, albeit none of the events would be cannon it creates some cool scenarios as each card has voice lines, and some of the champions when they reach certain conditions go thr
